The Look of Love

This is the first novel I've read by Monica Jackson and I enjoyed every bit of it. This is the story of a woman named Carmel Matthews who in the process of running a nursing agency, meets and falls for a sexy Doctor named Steve Reynolds, but because she refers to herself as, and believes herself to be 'a fat pig' she feels she's not good enough for him. Little does she know Steve is very much attracted to her and all her healthy curves and feels she is the sexiest thing going.
After seeing a photo of Steve's former wife and photos of other women he's dated, she decides she's going to go on a diet, become supermodel size and have Steve panting over her. Only things didn't quite go as planned. She may not have lost any weight, but she gained the love of a handsome doctor and most importantly she gained the love and exceptance of herself.

This book is for any woman - or a girl on her way to becoming a woman - who feels insecure in any way. One famous line comes to mind.

"I'm a woman phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, that's me." -Dr. Maya Angelou

I loved this book! I can't say it enough. You would be a fool to skip over such good reading.
